Body is predestined? Genes and exercise, more than you think!
Senior is going to meet her boyfriend's family! When we were happy for her, her face showed sadness and anxiety. We thought she was nervous and cheered for her. I didn't expect the senior's answer to be unexpected. She said: "I am worried that I will be disappointed to see my boyfriend's father. People don't say it, what about the other half? " Just look at his parents. "

(Scene photo/photo gallery provided) The words of the senior made us feel speechless instantly, but they were irrefutable and to the point. Because heredity really accounts for a large part of our appearance, including athletic ability. But, apart from genes, is there no room for us to make a comeback? Perhaps the following answers will give you a lot of hope.

Before introducing the following information, please allow me to ask a question. In my article "As long as you exercise, your body will get better? Don't be happy, you should say thank you to your parents first. There is an idea that "genes are difficult to change, but they can be modified quickly". I wonder if readers still remember? Next, before explaining the profound and sleepy content of genes, please allow me to make another hypothesis.

Suppose there is a person who is born with big eyes, yellow skin, small chest, thick legs and fat baby. Is there no chance to turn over in this life? First of all, it can be divided into several parts, such as big eyes or yellow skin, which can only be changed by plastic surgery, called "genes"; Small chest, thick legs and baby fat are adjustable externalities, which are called "epigenetic genes"; And "epigenetic modification" can be achieved through continuous chest expansion exercise, leg extension exercise, face-lifting exercise and so on. These acquired changes are called epigenetic modifications. Fortunately, long-term "epigenetic modification" can change "epigenetic genes" over time. What are the benefits of changing it? There are many benefits! Epigenetic modification changes not only us now, but also the children behind us, children's children, children's children's children, referred to as "generation"!

Is it still foggy? So let's cut to the chase. How long will it take for epigenetic modification to be realized? In fact, time comes much faster than you and I thought! For example, six months of aerobic exercise training can reduce DNA methylation. What is the relationship between "decreased DNA methylation" and exercise? This is very important. When methylation decreases, the related DNA expression will increase, and the benefits of exercise will become a little more.

If six months is too long, shorten the time! Studies have proved that 12 weeks (3 months) of resistance exercise will affect the expression of muscle-specific RNA-"microRNA", thus regulating the mRNA (information RNA) reaction in the body, and the performance of exercise will be better and better if it continues.

What, do you think 12 weeks of resistance movement is still too long? Then do a single 60-minute aerobic exercise! It has also been pointed out that a single 60-minute aerobic exercise can modify a protein-"histone" which is closely related to DNA. Although it is only a seemingly insignificant histone modification, it still proves the fairness of heaven. As long as you are willing to work hard the day after tomorrow, sports still have an important influence!

Finally, there is an old saying: "If you are not afraid of slowness, you are afraid of standing"! This sentence can also be used in sports, although heredity has created a fat physique, thick legs and fat waist, but as long as you don't slack off your efforts the day after tomorrow, not only will your body get better, but your children and grandchildren will be blessed!

Conclusion: More exercise is good for health!
